To add some fluff to your baby’s crib, you can sew two rows of pom-poms onto the canopy parting. Either make your own pom-pom so that you can choose the color and size, or go out hunting for the perfect pom-poms. We like this combination of white, baby blue, and baby pink, but you can definitely choose bolder colors or keep to one color scheme.

2. Embroidery Hoop & Ribbons

It is also a good idea to add a centerpiece to your plain sheer baby canopy. There is a common trick of combining an embroidery hoop with ribbons of different patterns and shades. Moreover, it also acts as a baby mobile. Lastly, if you don’t like the ribbons, you can substitute it with anything else, such as stars, pom-poms, butterflies, etc. using any material you like.

3. Feathers

Another idea is to use feathers which adds a kind of whimsy to your baby’s crib. You can also drape lace ribbons around the baby canopy like in this photo. If you want something more bold, you could use a dreamcatcher to ground the feathers. Alternatively, you could also weave feathers with colored beads to weigh it down.

4. Flower Crown

Some parents believe that a baby canopy isn’t complete without a beautiful flower crown. After all, this is your baby princess or prince snoozing underneath. You can stitch an array of flowers around an embroidery loop. If you don’t like the hanging bubbles, you can easily do away with it. Also, you can go for a single flower and color for simple charm.

5. Butterflies and Fairy Lights

If you want to go for glam, you could construct an elaborate butterfly chandelier with fairy lights. However, we recommend taking extra precaution when hanging these lights to prevent harm to your baby. Perhaps, it would be a good idea to hold off this decoration until your baby is 1 year old. Alternatively, you could substitute the butterflies with origami paper cranes! Most importantly, have fun coming up with your own DIY baby canopy decoration.

6. Top Bow
